Some info on your system would help.

What are the the "pre-existing fixes" that you've tried?

Do you have MS Visual Studio? https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/warning-ms-vc-14-50-v145-kill-vegas-permanently--150332/

There is no "Sony" Vegas in that Humble Bundle. It clearly said Magix.

As noted above, your computer specs should be listed in your User Profile>Signature like mine below.

Also, did you install it on your C: drive?

I'd try the Microsoft Visual C++ fix above.

Other idea is if you have it installed in French try English and see if it works.
